LAUREN FRANK
Hi, I’m a Graphic Designer based in New York City. I graduated from University of California, Los Angeles in 2020, where I studied Art and Art History and I am now working as a Design Assistant at Artisan Council, while also doing freelance work for design studios and non profits. Previously, I’ve worked at The Jewish Museum in New York, VICE Media, and Bravo within NBCUniversal.
My main interests within design include typography, archives, branding, and publication design,
as well as the intersections between
art and design.
Big fan of to-do lists, lists in general, Hieronymus Bosch, the relationship between witchcraft and feminism, weird art, and really chubby typefaces.

SOUVENIRS IN SPACE
Souvenirs in Space was created as part of a capstone project completed for a B.A. in Art from UCLA. This saddle-stitch booklet brings together most of the artwork I created in college, accompanied by text on my inspirations, ideas, and themes behind each series, most of which focus heavily on place, identity, and nostalgia, as named on the booklet’s cover.
POPSHIFT SUMMIT
Designed for a virtual event at the peak of COVID-19 in 2020 to provide participants with a tangible and memorable element of the event, during a very digital-heavy time. This 8-page booklet was a concept created for PopShift Summit, an event bringing television writers and showrunners together to create a more inclusive and intersectional future for the entertainment industry. The use of typography reminiscent of Old Hollywood and bold shapes and color all represent a new wave of change within a historically exclusive industry.
LUMIERE SKINCARE
A skincare brand with the mission of creating clean and ethical products. The brand’s identity is rooted within nature, with a color palette derived from natural elements and abstract geometric forms inspired by chemical bonds, as the most important element of great skincare is great chemistry.
OUT WEST COOKBOOK
This book was designed with the user in mind most of all, focusing on being
straightforward and understandable,
while also evoking the excitement of
cooking. The use of bright
photography and color reflects the colorful
landscape and cuisine of the West
Coast. Each chapter is assigned its
own color, so the reader may easily
find a chapter by looking at the fore-edge of the book. Photography by Nikole Herriot and Michael Graydon.
